These Sausage Stars are amazing!  They’re full of protein because of the sausage and the best part – they are EASY!  Who doesn’t love an easy appetizer to take to a party!  You’ll be asked to bring these every time, I’m telling’ ya!  I love a good recipe that fits the bill for any occasion.

Hosting for a birthday party?  Try these!

Having a holiday party?  Make these!

Want a special, just for you, snack?  Make these!  They’re that good!

The hardest part?  Browning the sausage and wonton wrappers – and seriously, my 10 year old can do that.  I just do the vegetable cutting for him 🙂

Here’s what you need to make your own Sausage Stars:

• Colby Monterrey Jack Cheese
• Ranch dressing
• Red and green bell pepper
• Chopped olives
• Sausage
• Won Ton Wrappers

You can find the Won Ton Wrappers in the fresh veggie section of almost any store.  There are 48 in the package and the recipe uses all of them. SCORE!  What else are you gonna use them for if you don’t use them all?!  I’m all about easy and no leftover “stuff”.  The recipe calls for a small can of chopped olives – I only had a big can of whole ones so that’s what I used. Get the chopped – it’s keeps it easy 😉

Place the wrappers in a cupcake pan.  Bake them for about 10-15 minutes until they are a light golden brown.

Next up, brown the sausage and cut the veggies!

Mix everything in a bowl VIOLA!  Spoon to delicious mixture into the browned Won Ton Wrappers and top with cheese.

At this point, you’re gonna just want to eat them – but you can opt to stick them back in the oven and melt the cheese on top.  Either way you do it, they’re not gonna last!  Snag a few for yourself since you did all the work and display the rest to last about – 5 minutes MAX!  YEP!  They’re that good!
